Issue statement –

In Purchase requisition, the customer selects a procurement category (PC). This PC is linked to Business rules for FA determinations where the threshold amount is 0. They enter the quantity and unit but leave the unit price blank. In the FA tab of Line Details, the Asset group does not get populated. If the user goes to Unit Price field and manually enters a 0, only then it gets populated.

This is an issue because the user cannot manually keep entering the price field every time. If the FA group is not populated, the Purchase request gets processed further to Purchase order and invoice without the FA group, which defeats the purpose of FA acquisition. 

Setup -

 Define a Business Rule for FA determination, link a Procurement category to it and set the Capitalization threshold is 0.

Process -

1. Create a Purchase request.
2. Select the Procurement category and leave the unit price field blank.
3. In the Fixed Asset details tab, the asset group will display blank values.
4. Click on the unit price field and enter a 0 manually and move to the next field.
5. The fixed asset details will be populated with the asset group defined in the business rules.

This is a product defect, and though the obvious work around is to enter a 0 manually, this is not a feasible process and will not work for any purchase request where the number of lines is huge, exceeding 10s or 100s. This defect should be resolved by linking the asset group for those business rules where the cap threshold is 0.
